Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Lots of vendors that became obnoxious.

Mazatlan, Mexico

1 out of 5
We scheduled an excursion through Cruises Only that was cancelled at the last minute by the operator. They offered and alternative excursion for the same money. The alternative was a day at a resort. It was the worst experience we have ever had on an excursion. My advice is to book excursions through Royal Caribbean. They seem to vet the providers of excursions better than Cruises Only.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

3 out of 5
Our excursion was changed at the last minute, but we did not like the change, and we cancelled and got our money back.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We carried our luggage off the ship and it went very smoothly.

I can understand your view on excursions. I know they are more expensive thru the cruise line, but am happy they are vetted, and when we are in a foreign country, the ship knows where we are.
